China Shore Excursions

A wide range of China shore excursions, day trips and tours have been planned by Opulent Routes at various famous ports in China, including Beijing (port of Tianjin), Shanghai, Guangzhou, Dalian, Qingdao, Sanya, Xiamen, Yantai and Hong Kong. We always take care to enrich your China day tour with every China shore excursion to maximise your visit to each port while experiencing this country in an individual manner.

In addition, with your own private car, driver, and guide, we also give specially built day trips and tours with versatile and exclusive China shore excursions. The highest standard of efficiency, protection, convenience, and value is given by each of our tours. As a travel specialist in China, we suggest that passengers request a Chinese visa in advance. Since immigration, even though the policy is applicable, has the right to reject a visa-free application.
